There were many great photos this month which make me pine for some time in camp.

The winner of the May Photo Contest goes to thecanoeman! Congratulations! The winner of the trip report contest is kanoes for his first but not last solo adventure! L.t. Sully picks up the bonus hat we give away each month.

The winners of the photo and trip report contest will also receive a hat and also a CD copy of the Wilderness Passages magazine and DVD.

This is a pretty good camp photo, from one of the Gabbro camps.

Moose Plums....I assume those are brothers, or the result of an early cloning experiment that went horribly awry!

I like the Caribou Lake picture. Is that the Caribou by Lizz Lake. In fact, is that the campsite right across from the portage into Lizz Lake?

I like that campsite on Allen, especially as a solo site.

What could make a camp better than being in the BWCA with friends and family.

This month's picture topic reminded me of something funny posted on another board a few years ago - the word "castrametation." It means "the art of setting up or laying out a camp." What a great word! And of course it lends itself to all sorts of funny puns. Try to fit it into your next trip report!

Mr. Barley, we had a tent exactly like that back in the 70's!

Lac La Croix, an island campsite towards the east end of the lake (near the pictographs with all the hands)

Rain, rain and more rain! Esther Lake September 2007 - 5 Inches in one night. Our makeshift clothesline works quite well! We also had a great island retreat where the view was impressive when the storm clouds rolled in! check out my other pics in the Journal section

Canoe Dude,
That looks like the same camp site that I took my Dutch oven photo on. It’s posted on the “How to cook over fire?” thread.

Island site on western side of Crooked Lake. I have a couple other sites that I like just as much or more, but not many good pics of them. Here we are doing a dutch oven sorta thing to cook some brownies, looking off to the south east.

Here's my favorite BWCAW photo in all my 4 old albums. A friend took it on Seagull on the last night of a trip in the early '90's. Don't smoke my pipe any more, but I always enjoyed that evening "Smoke" by the campfire while listening to the "Loon music." WW
